Please note that it is also available from Hewlett Packard.  It's
known as HP Part No. 92222G.  It's a really handy book to have around.
It's just smaller than the calculator, so it fits in the case
perfectly.  And it provides decent (if brief) examples of some of the
common & rough features you'd want to use.  (E.G. - Plotting &
Solving to find the roots of an equation, Differentiation & Minimum
Finding, both Symbolic & Numerical Integration).  It gives enough to
work with, but not enought that the book weighs 72 Kg (:-)).

I'm having severe line noise problems, so I'll sign off here.

Excellent book.
